[solved] Can't enter recovery after 'format system' in CWM - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I may just have the most stupid thing I could possibly do. I've got a soft-rooted Xperia SP (TowelRoot) and opened CWM Recovery to try to install Cyanogenmod. It cited I had to 'format system' and I rebooted the phone thereafter. Now it's stuck on the Sony Logo and I can't get it into recovery anymore. Even by force-rebooting via the hardware button on the back I can reboot the phone, but it stucks at the sony logo.
Please help, I haven't got a clue..
Update: I can get into fastboot mode. However, my bootloader is still locked.

when you wipe data the cmw is gone....best thing to do now is to flash stock ftf ROM via flashtool ...go here and panic

Well, I'm glad all android phones have a fast boot mode, which I was used to with my previous HTC One X. I Quickly fast boot flashed a new boot.img and I had CWM back on. Then I installed CyanogenMod and I was done. Pretty easy in fact.

[Q] LG G Flex D950 soft bricked CWM boot loop, no DM

I'm new to the development side of Android and I bought a ROOTED phone from a Co-worker. Well my phone tried to do a software update and the phone is stuck in a CWM boot loop. Me not being familiar with CWM or ROOT, I pressed the factory reset button in CWM. Now I am unable to fix it. I have tried ADB sideload to load ROMS to the phone. They will say they are installed but then it will just go right back to CWM. I am trying the LG flash tool now but my phone will not go into download mode. Can anyone help me, please. I love this phone....

Can you get into clockwork mod without it looping
If not try command
Adb reboot recovery
Chances are previous owner has some Roms saved on the SD card
In the download folder
Keep in mind Roms are carrier specific on this phone
Yes it boots into CWM recovery and I accidentally wiped everything. I am trying to use the LG flash tool but it will not even go to download mode....
In recovery factory reset clear your cache and dalvic
And try sideload again,if it doesn't work try pushing the file with adb
If you can't get that pm me and I'll troubleshoot with you.
D950 on LG logo
I have a D950 only boots to the LG logo. I rooted the phone and then tried to install CWM. I didn't know about Freedom Flex then, so i used a forum post to try and do it. I successfully got CWM on the phone, but now it won't boot past the LG logo (also boots to CWM, I think it'll go into download mode). I'm not sure if I did any of it correctly, but I've tried CWM, ADB, LG Flash Tool, Odin, etc to somehow get the phone working again to no avail. I'm not even sure if anything can connect/detect the phone. If there's nothing I can do then fine, but if anyone can help/try to help please do. It was a nice phone an i'd love to have it working again, its been so long.

Want to flash CWM, but went wrong..

Hello guys,
I wanted to flash CWM on my Xperia SP. My phone is bootloader unlocked and rooted. When I wanted to flash CWM (by kernel.elf), my phone got stuck on sony logo (small logo). So I thought it was a good idea to flash back to stock (the one on this site C5303: http://xperiafirmware.com/8-firmware/37-sony-xperia-sp-c5303). However, when I did that, an error occured in FlashTool and FlashTool aborted the operation. Now I'm stuck on the big Sony logo. When I connect my phone to the computer, it immediately goes into flash mode. Can somebody help me?
Kind regards,
Jelle

Stuck at logo, not a loop

My phone is unlockboothloader, i just did not notice about that and accept the OTA update, then it started to stuck in logo, but i could still get into cwm recovery, after reboot many times, it was same then i clicked wipe data in cwm recovery then reboot again. This time it still stuck at logo and i cant access cwm recovery anymore. I tried to flash stock rom by Flashtool but it always announce that "Please turn on unknown sources and debugging" after running a bit. What can i do now? Please help me. Thank you

Xperia e1 d2105 stuck in a bootloop

hello
I've recently found my old Xperia e1 dual d2105 and say I want to try to root this phone
so I tried to follow this.
but for the unlocking bootloader part, I used the instructions on the Sony website and successfully unlocked it.
then I flashed Philz recovery (I don't know if this is the correct term flashing). then I entered the custom recovery and everything as far as know was good.
so then I wanted to root by the same tutorial but when I entered the SuperSu it didn't ask for the update instead it said that the Su binary is occupied.
so my stupid mind suggested instead of trying to solve the problem go to the magisk website and follow that instruction. so I went there and downloaded the zip file then reboot and went into custom recovery and installed it. but when I rebooted the sony logo came and then I was stuck (i think it is called a bootloop).
so I detached the battery to turn the phone off and tried to turn it on but the screen is stuck at the Sony logo and some times it turns himself off:silly:
so I searched on how to get out of a bootloop but I had to get in the recovery mode (or flash mode I think) but when I press power + vol down phone starts up and vibrates and the light turns green but then the light turns off and I'm stuck at the Sony logo:crying:
so if there is anyone who can help me get out of this situation please respond :crying::crying::crying:
also, I tried to go into recovery mode with ADB but I got error: device not found
I have downloaded and installed the USB driver.
You have to go to fastboot mode, then boot twrp and flash new rom
